   <xsl:variable name="index">2</xsl:variable>

don't use variable with content unless you really mean to create a result
tree fragment,

 <xsl:variable name="index" select="2"/>

makes $index into the number 2 rather than a result tree fragment
representing a document node with child text node with string content 2.
Apart from being a lot more efficient it would mean you wiuldn't need
number() here:
[number($index)]
